In April 1938, Guy Callendar published the first evidence from thermometer observations that the world’s land areas were warming.
He also linked the observed warming to the increase in atmospheric CO₂ from burning coal.

Agreeing, but noting we did get here because the previous non-violent resistance failed to clean house after winning.
A message that people should start spreading around: don’t pivot to or practice violence in any way! Don’t even hint at! This regime is looking for any excuse to go after people. Lead with nonviolence by proclaiming it, practice it! This will help protect you from a pretexted tyranny.
In 2011 "Why Civil Resistance Works" Chenoweth & Stephan studied 323 major campaigns 1900–2006
•NON-VIOLENT 53% success
•Violent 26% success
•NON-VIOLENCE 2x as effective
•Especially when they reached 3.5% population participation
•NON-VIOLENCE led to more democratic outcomes
